The old 12 gauge sent mama groundhog to her eternal reward yesterday AM,
and did the same to one of her children later, but the remaining child is
very cautious and impossible to get a bead on.

OK, fly bait mixed with Dr. Pepper (non-diet) is very effective against
raccoons. They die on the spot. Problem is that it's attractive to birds
and pets too. Just wondering if woodchucks are attracted to it???

I understand that just plain carbonated soft-drink (non-diet) will kill
woodchucks because they are unable to belch. Is this a myth?

For the cautious ones I like a box trap baited with an apple. I
shoot them in the trap & just rinse it off well and store outside.
[BTW-- I use a 22-- 12 gauge for woodchucks? noisy, expensive &
overkill]

Sounds like it to me. But I've never seen one drinking a coke- so who
knows?

Have used Hav-a-heart traps for 'coons with a coup de grace via 22 but
never tried it with woodchucks. As for the choice of shootin' irons at a
distance, I just can't zero in the Ruger 22. The trajectory seems to go
right and upward.

Well, if we're to believe Internet lore, mice and rats supposedly can't
fart or burp and die of bloat. And woodchucks also being rodents ....
but, like you say, it's probably myth.

Those damn things are a real pest though. Smoking them out isn't an
option. They're smart enough to start a burrow on one side of the property
line and finish it on the other, going under a barbed-wire fence, poison
ivy, wild rose, and worst of all, a row of about 50 mulberry and black
cherry trees which attract them in the first place.

Why bother with the woodchucks? Go shoot a nigger or a Mexican.

Why not? Are you willing to donate one?

Well, no.

I imagine it would be confiscated for the ensuing investigation,
and I'd not see it again for a very large number of years.
Shotguns do not cost very much; go buy your own.

Few years back, Mama and Papa Groundhog were doing the dirty deed right out
in the open on the lawn, not 20 ft. away from my office here. Walked right
up to 'em POW said the right barrel of my double-barreled 12 gauge and Papa
went flying off to his eternal reward. POW said the left barrel and ended
Mama's orgasm.

And ya know what's really funny? This was Valentine's Day! I killed a
record no. of groundhogs that yr., about a dozen confirmed kills as I
recall

For all you PETA pussies, you just don't have a clue how destructive
woodchucks and raccoons can be. Woodchucks dig these burrows near fruit
trees making it impossible to mow. They've even tried to burrow under the
house. Raccoons tear up gardens and deck furniture, wash their food in the
cat's water dish, try to get down the chimney, and of course are the most
likely of all creatures to have rabies. Even in my left-wing,
politically-correct Stae, the govt. encourages killing 'coons. In fact,
it's illegal to trap and release 'em.

As opposed to you barbaric pussies who believe that taking a life is
justified just because it isn't a sentient being? It must really suck
to be you...
